How her therapeutic approaches translate online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. Online, this means conversations that help someone name values and notice what gets in the way of living those values. It can help with direction, low self-esteem, and relationship questions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. In remote sessions this can include reviewing thought records, planning behavioral experiments, and practicing skills between meetings to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. When used online, DBT methods lend themselves to short skills coaching and repeated practice to manage intense emotions and improve coping.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with a client about goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. That process is collaborative and paced to the person's needs.
Session format details are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so work or study breaks are simpler to arrange.
